In particular the phrase "At number 10 do the {first,second} moment"

English is not my native language and I didn't know what to call it but
feel free to change it.
What I mean is that when you are at step (or what to call it) 10 you
should only do one of the two things and it depends on what you did at
step 1.
If you do "Download the latest Tango compatible DMD version (for now
1.025). At number 10 do the first moment" then at step 10 you should do
"Download and install the latest SVN trunk of Tango".
Do you understand it better now? Maybe you can formulate it in a better
way or someone else.

Its a common problem here on "D".
I would suggest you locate an english speaking friend and just run it by them
first before you post it on the public site .
A nice clean install is necessary so the focus goes immediately to the new
subject
If you start with a confusing install then that confusion stays and the
application suffers.

Your most likely correct but I rather suspect it more general than just here
(I don't have empirical evidence of this) For open, online communities, there
will be language issues. Whatever language you use, someone with something
worthwhile to say will not have the language skills to say it (or the reverse).
I think the best we can hope for is a bit of understanding and a bit of help
where needed (and a wiki won't hurt ;-)

Ok. That does make more sense. I'll try to clean it up.
But is it really necessary to use SVN tango currently?
And if it is necessary then what's the advantage of downloading Tango's
version of DMD if you're only going to replace tango? Seems the
alternate way to install DMD just makes things more confusing than they

no, actually it is now Franky? 0.95 that should be used for Tango, so

you want. In particular it seems impossible to get the formatting right

Here's what I tried in wiki syntax:
--------------------------
'''Installation:'''
Installation of DWT requires a '''D 1.x compiler''', and '''Tango'''.
'''Mercurial''' and '''DSSS''' are also highly recommended.
A. Install '''D 1.x Compiler'''[[BR]]There are several ways to get the
D compiler. Two possible ways are:
* Download from !DigitalMars
(http://www.digitalmars.com/d/download.html) (Current version 1.028)
* Download Tango bundled with DMD -
http://www.dsource.org/projects/tango/wiki/DmdDownloads. If you choose
this option, obviously you can skip step B below, installing Tango.
[[BR]]Hints on installing DMD:
* Put the DMD files in a directory path without spaces
* Put dmd/bin in some environment variable to be able to access DMD
from the command line/terminal
B. Install '''Tango'''[[BR]]
Instructions for installing Tango are here:
http://www.dsource.org/projects/tango/wiki/TopicInstallTango
C. Install '''DSSS'''[[BR]]
1. Download latest DSSS -
http://svn.dsource.org/projects/dsss/downloads/
2. Unpack DSSS in directory path without spaces
3. Put dsss/bin in some environment variable to be able to access
DSSS from the command line/terminal
4. Open dsss/etc/rebuild/default with a text editor
5. Change to one of the following:
* profile=dmd-win-tango
* profile=dmd-posix-tango
6. Change the oneatatime option in the DSSS compiler profile
(dmd-win-tango or dmd-posix-tango) to oneatatime=off (twice)
(Recommended for faster builds)
D. Install '''Mercurial'''[[BR]]
For more info see here -
http://www.dsource.org/projects/dwt/wiki/AccessMercurialRepo
E. Install '''DWT'''[[BR]]
1. In the command line/terminal change to the directory you want to
download DWT to
2. Download DWT by running from the command line one of the
following commands:
{{{
hg clone http://hg.dsource.org/projects/dwt-linux
hg clone http://hg.dsource.org/projects/dwt-win
}}}
3. (Windows only) Download some additional libraries and put them
in dmd/lib -
[http://downloads.dsource.org/projects/dwt/dwt-win-importlibs.zip
dwt-win-importlibs.zip]
4. In the command line/terminal, change into the newly created
directory dwt-linux or dwt-win
5. Run "dsss build" to build DWT
6. Run "dsss install" to install DWT. After the installation
process you should be able to build a dwt application with dsss anywhere
in your system and you DON'T have to rename anything.
F. Testing your '''DWT''' installation[[BR]]
1. You can test DWT with the following example:
{{{
module main;
import dwt.widgets.Display;
import dwt.widgets.Shell;
void main ()
{
Display display = new Display;
Shell shell = new Shell(display);
shell.setText = "Hello DWT World";
shell.open;
while (!shell.isDisposed)
if (!display.readAndDispatch)
display.sleep;
display.dispose;
}
}}}
2. Put the above code in a new file "main.d" into another
directory[[BR]]
3. Create a minimal file named "dsss.conf" in the same directory as
above[[BR]]
{{{
[main.d]
}}}
4. Run "dsss build" in the same directory as above[[BR]]
In case you get linker errors verify that:
* on windows, that the location of the import libs is known to
dsss also. To be sure you can give that path to dsss with -S"path"
* that you did "dsss install" after building dwt

I've updated the wiki with your new installation instructions, it was
some problem with formatting the text, it could look better but it works
(I think). The problem is that it only shows A in the list not B and C
and so on. To clarify on that, all steps are called A.

For gods sake stand back and have another look at this ridiculously confusing
set of requirements . Surely you can come up with a better method than this !

1. Do one of the following
* Download the latest Tango compatible DMD version (for now
1.025). At number 10 do the first moment
* Alternative download DMD from the Tango website bundled with
Tango - http://www.dsource.org/projects/tango/wiki/DmdDownloads. At
number 10 do the second moment.
"""
In particular the phrase "At number 10 do the {first,second} moment"
doesn't really make sense in English. What is that supposed to mean?
(BTW I did get DWT installed anyway.)

English is not my native language and I didn't know what to call it but
feel free to change it.
What I mean is that when you are at step (or what to call it) 10 you
should only do one of the two things and it depends on what you did at
step 1.
If you do "Download the latest Tango compatible DMD version (for now
1.025). At number 10 do the first moment" then at step 10 you should do
"Download and install the latest SVN trunk of Tango".
Do you understand it better now? Maybe you can formulate it in a better
way or someone else.

Ok. That does make more sense. I'll try to clean it up.
But is it really necessary to use SVN tango currently?
And if it is necessary then what's the advantage of downloading Tango's
version of DMD if you're only going to replace tango? Seems the
alternate way to install DMD just makes things more confusing than they
need to be.

no, actually it is now Franky? 0.95 that should be used for Tango, so
that can be updated.
